    “I’m not informed, but they’re terrible!” Is a pretty arrogant take.

      I’m sorry, is it discouraged to be self aware? It is very common to have preconceived ideas about things based on media/whatever, however I am trying to be self aware enough to realise that this view isn’t based on very much research, which is why I’m trying to re-evaluate it.

      Surely it is far more arrogant to assume I have no ill-informed views, and that I have never been affected by misinformation.
